TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of digital manufacturing of aluminum alloys, in particular to a 6451 aluminum alloy plate based on dynamic diffusion field regulation. BACKGROUND
[0002] The 6451 aluminum alloy belongs to the 6-series Al-Mg-Si alloy with medium-high strength, and has excellent properties such as good formability, high baking strength and good energy absorption effect, and is widely used in automobile body structure parts such as longitudinal beams, threshold beams, bottom plate beams, floors, roof covers and door inner plates. The solute element Mg and Si contents of the 6451 alloy are higher than those of conventional 6016 and 6014 alloys, so that a higher baking strength is obtained to improve the crash performance, while the problem of too high yield strength reducing the formability exists.
[0003] The 6-series aluminum alloy is subjected to solid solution heat treatment to regulate the solid solution degree of solute atoms and then regulate the precipitation strengthening phase in the matrix, so that a higher strength is obtained, and the initial yield strength of the alloy is also increased, thereby reducing the stamping formability of the alloy.
[0004] In order to meet the best load transmission path of the automobile body structure parts, the 6-series aluminum automobile plate should have a suitable yield strength to ensure excellent stamping formability, and the crash performance of the automobile body structure parts should be considered. The 6-series alloy should also have a higher baking strength. The energy absorption performance during the crash deformation process of the automobile structure parts is the focus of the industry, and the bending angle is used as a means to measure the crash energy absorption. The aluminum alloy plate for automobile structure parts needs a higher bending angle.
[0005] In recent years, some domestic universities and research institutions have carried out a lot of work on the mechanical properties and crash performance of 6-series aluminum alloy plates. At present, most researchers mainly focus on the optimization and simulation calculation method of the automobile body structure, and the research on improving the crash performance of the material is relatively less. The patent CN118186277A uses modified basalt fibers to improve the toughness of the aluminum alloy. The modified basalt fibers are in the form of circular tubes and have higher energy absorption capacity. When the aluminum alloy is impacted, the modified basalt fibers can disperse the impact force and disperse the force to the shell structure reinforcing particles, thereby enhancing the fracture toughness of the aluminum alloy. However, the composite material has the disadvantages of high cost and poor process stability, and cannot be widely applied in the automobile field. The aluminum alloy prepared in the patent CN113981281A can reach a peak value in a relatively short time, and the yield strength R p0.2 of the high-strength rapid aging aluminum alloy is greater than or equal to 265 MPa, and the tensile strength R m≥307MPa, elongation A-(50) ≥5.5%, a higher strength is obtained, but the yield strength is too high, the alloy forming property cannot be guaranteed, and the complex forming requirement of automobile parts cannot be met. The patent CN119389309A optimizes the aluminum alloy vehicle body structure, simplifies the structure, improves the space utilization, improves the bending and torsion of the vehicle body and the crash performance, improves the side crash and side column crash safety performance, and improves the torsional stiffness and side crash performance of the vehicle body, but does not involve the improvement of the material crash performance. The patent CN115831289A establishes a material model through the stress-strain curve of the material under various temperature and humidity conditions, is configured to meet the basic performance requirements under the preset temperature and humidity range, obtains the forming target structure, and performs crash simulation, simplifies the test process, and reduces the test difficulty and cost, but does not provide the research on improving the crash performance of the material under different temperature and humidity environments. The patent CN112195376A innovates the double-stage pre-aging process, controls the cluster of the strengthening phase beta" phase formed by the baking treatment, and improves the baking hardening performance of the plate, but the holding time of the solid solution process is long, the production efficiency is low, and the current demand for high efficiency production cannot be met. In addition, the current double-stage homogenization process cannot be industrialized. SUMMARY

Performance Test
[0165] 1. Mechanical property test:
[0166] The T4P state finished plates obtained in each example and comparative example were stored for 7 days, and then the yield strength (R p0.2 ), tensile strength (R m ), and elongation (A 50 ) of the plates were tested; the yield strength (R p0.2 / BH) and tensile strength (R m / BH) of the plates after paint baking treatment were tested. All the mechanical property test samples were sampled along the vertical rolling direction, and the sample size was A50 tensile sample recommended by GB / T228, and the test results are shown in Table 1.
[0167] 2. Evaluation of bending performance:
[0168] A sample with a length of 60mm and a width of 60mm was taken from the plate after paint baking treatment along the rolling direction, and then loaded along the center axis of the sample to the maximum load and continued to load 30N, and then the bending measured angle a was measured after unloading, and the thickness conversion angle was β=α×(b / 2) 1 / 2 (wherein b is the actual thickness of the plate), and the test results are shown in Table 1.
[0169] Table 1: Mechanical properties, paint baking, and bending angle of examples;
[0170] ;
[0171] From Table 1, it can be seen that the initial yield strength of the plates of Examples 1-7 is maintained at 104-115 MPa, and the elongation is ≥25%, meeting the requirements for plate stamping; after 2% pre-stretching + 185℃x20min simulated paint baking, the yield strength is greater than 235 MPa, and the bending angle is greater than 80°, which can be used as high-strength automobile structural parts. In the comparative examples, because Comparative Examples 1-7 do not meet the requirements of the present application, the following results are obtained:
[0172] A. Comparative Example 1 has a slow solid solution heating speed, and the strip passes through the entire length of the continuous annealing furnace, and is in the heating process, resulting in a serious lack of holding time, and thus the solid solution amount cannot be guaranteed, resulting in too low alloy strength, which cannot meet the performance requirements;
[0173] B. Comparative Example 2 has a too fast solid solution heating speed, and the solute atoms are in a back-dissolution state after reaching the temperature, resulting in an increase in the solid solution amount, and thus the alloy strength is too high, and the bending performance is less than 80°, which cannot meet the performance requirements;
[0174] C. Comparative Example 3 has a too short solid solution holding time, and the solid solution amount is insufficient, and the solubility of solute atoms is too low, and in the subsequent aging process, the amount of strengthening phase precipitated is insufficient, resulting in insufficient strength, which cannot meet the performance requirements;
[0175] D. Comparative Example 4 has a too long solid solution holding time, and the solid solution amount is too high, and the solubility of solute atoms is too high, resulting in too high initial yield strength, and the forming performance is reduced, and at the same time, the bending angle after paint baking is small, which does not meet the performance requirements.
[0176] E. Comparative Example 5 has a slow cooling speed, and the solute atoms precipitate during the cooling process, resulting in a high initial yield strength of the alloy, which cannot guarantee the formability of the material; during the paint baking heat treatment process, the size of the precipitated phase increases, and the bending performance of the material is deteriorated.
[0177] F. Comparative Example 6 has a too fast cooling speed, and the strip produces internal stress, although the mechanical properties of the strip meet the requirements, but the flatness of the strip is poor, and the stamping springback is large, which cannot meet the performance requirements.
[0178] G. Comparative Example 7 directly uses water quenching without combining with strong wind, resulting in a high temperature of the strip, and the temperature of the strip after passing through the quenching zone of the continuous annealing furnace is higher than 180℃, while the surface of the transmission roller is polyurethane material, which can resist a temperature lower than 150℃, resulting in melting of the transmission rubber roller and adhering to the surface of the strip, which is scrapped and cannot be tested for performance.
